Bacterial Infections are detrimental colonizations of a host organism by pathogenic bacteria. Common pathogenic bacteria include Helicobacter pylori (cause of gastritis and stomach ulcers) and Staphylococcus aureus (the cause of "Staph Infections", especially from the "super bug" Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)).
